From The Electric Warlock Acid Witch Satanic Orgy Celebration Dispenser (2016). The Electric Warlock Acid Witch Satanic Orgy Celebration Dispenser is the sixth solo studio album by American heavy metal vocalist Rob Zombie. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the nearest rig we use for Rob Zombie's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop D.
